Look for a hein werner hydraulic pump to bolt on definitely a arm saver vs lifting the lift lever. 💪

What about castors on either side of the blade? To keep it out of the gravel?

Ive never really plowed much with tractors on 6x12 tires, now that will change if I get the John Deere 110 out to try one of these snows. Right now my machines are on the 10.5x12 rear tires, but they are both 90's cyclops series. I might dig out the addition sometime so I can try out the Cub Cadet 73 and rear blade one of these snows.

I've tried rear blades in the past but they don't seem to work as well once you've run over the area with the wheels , plus getting a crick in my neck.

@@DeeringDave Yea for sure, this is probably more just to mess with one time we dont get dumped on with snow.

Where did you find the tires for the rear wheels. I purchased an old cub 102 and need narrow tires to fit thru my basement door.

I got them from a Simplicity Landlord ,garden parts tractor.
